nErrrn THAN A DOOM.

The quiet, but sure and solid prog ress In the growth of Flagstaff during the past year is positive indication of the important position the town must assume in the future, among the cities of the southwestern portion of the continent. There has been no "boom" like that of number of towns Tn southern Kansas and eastern Colo rado, where real estate values have been run up to fabulous prices, caus- ing an excitement which in many ca. ses will subside as rapidly as 1t was created-or more properly speaking, manufactured-by local operators. Flagstaff has grown with marvellous rap idity without any concerted effort to attract attention to the place. It was only few months ago that our business men began to awaken to the fact that the town was increasing in size and population and its business extending, week by week. The growth had been so quiet that it was scarcely noticed until the strange faces met on the streets and the number of new buildings in all stages of construction forced upon our attention the fact that what was fourteen months ago (after the fre) a deserted, desolate viii lage, was now thriving, prosperous town.

The professional "boomer" who is now so prevalent in Kansas is a de- velopment of comparatively recent date, He is full of resources and de- vices for making the fortunes of oth- CTS, and in the excitement he raises, he "gets his work in" making some thing for himself. He cares nothR 2 for the lasting prosperity of the place and if the tide he assists in starting shows any sign of ebbing he departs for fresh fields and pastures new. But still the professional boomer is some times useful. To begin with, he rarely wastes his valuable time in any place unless 1t shows some signs of undoubted future prosperity, then he comes to help it along and help him. self at the same time. As an .illustra- tion, he bears the same relation to ma terial prosperity as revivalists do to moral and religious development. They both stir up matters and mske people look themselves squarely in the face, see the mistakes and needs of their lives and the possibility..of rising to a larger, better and broader condi- ton.
 It is an oft quoted saying, "rhere is tide in the affairs of men which taken at the flood leads on to for tune" It is equally true that there is tide in the affair of communities, which taken at the flood, leads on 10 lasting prosperity. Such flood time is now approaching in this section of northern Arizona.
 Men will be found around here whose great business in life seems to be-doubting. They ask, with an air of unanswerable wisdom, what is there in this country to make large busi' ness center? No doubt, when the Hol. lander bought Manhattan Island fol twenty-five dollars, there were other Dutchmen standing around who thought him a fool and asked simi lar question. It was nothing but ; barren rock encircled by tentacles of the sea, but, New York City is bull on it now.
 The elements of FlagstaH's future prosperity are many. It stands in the center of a splendid agricultural, cat tie and lumber region with an area o over 10000 square miles. 1t vii become busy railroad center. It i' now situated on one of the trunk trans continental lines which will be joinet here by two lines conveying to 1t | One now building south--the Minera

DELUDED DEMOCRATS.
Set Straight by Member Of Their own
 Party.

In this weeks issue the Silver Belt, of Globe, published letter from Eu- gene J. Trippel, the representative from Gila in the I4th. legislature, in which that gentleman replies to the articles which have appeared from time to time in the Tombstone Dem- ocrat defending Governor Zulick and assailing, what they call, the county combination charging them with caus- ing all the perniclous legislation of the session. Alter demolishing with cold facts the repeated assertions of the Democrat that legislative journals were kept, Mir. Trippel says: #.
 Speaking of the notorious county division combination that d,d all the harm in the action of either body of the legislature, if any harm was done," the Democrat excitedly ex. claims; This combination with the astute MT. Trippel at its head, virtu. ally controlled the legislation of the house. Very few, if any bills passed without its approval" IL is true that a combination was formed H. the house. The annexation of a portion of Yayapai to Glla, another portion to MaricOpa, the creation of"Frisco" from the same county, and "MiIes" from Cochise and Graham received it's support. But, Mr. BracewelI, how about the segregation of Nogales to Cochise, which was brought before the house by Cochise representative? Was the Yuma bill asking for Mari copa's railroad 8 combination scheme? And further, was the outrageous reso- lution dissolving the House Insane Asylum investigation committee in- troduccd by a combination member or by ]. NJ. Brlcewcll? Did the com binaton endeavor to railroad through certain code bills by reading them the first, second and third times by Eurle under suspension of the rules, and placing them on their final pas sage for the ayes and nays, without commitment or without a member knowing the objects of the bill fol which he voted? In addition to the county measures enumerated, the com blnation voted against the repeal of 1 the Territorial University and for g measure granting counties the power to change their county seats by popu, lar vote. These comprise the sum to. tai Of its bills.
 |, Your correspondent requests tht | Democrats proprietor to substantiatt the assertions of his sheet by proving the "harm" consummated by the combination, and showing in colo 1 type, the pernicious legislation that il assumes was effected through its agen | cy. Says the Democrat. "What thi neted band of legislative jobber would have accomplished, is beyond the speculation of any honest man but for the fact that the Governor with his veto, stood in their path way"
 In this connection it may be wei to inquire what bills the governor really did veto. To the best of my rec ollecsions but two--the judges salary and the lottery bills--met the veto With these the combination as an or. ganization had nothing to do. The allegation is therefore pointless, anc would appear as if Intentionally cal culated to mislead through its ambig uity.

SOME amateur detectives have shot and killed a man in California be- lieving him to be Pete Olsen the Napa murderer. The plea of good inten- tions on the part of these self consti- tuted officers of the law should not exonerate them from punishment, Their zeal was no doubt prompted by the hope of obtaining the large reward offered.

THE event oi last week Was the un- ,ening oi the statue of John c. Cal houn at Charleston and the dedica- toty orauon by Secretary Lamar. Charleston Is fitting place for the stsloe, because it was in Charleston that the pcrul,ious doctrine of nulli- h,.lion, of which Calhoun was the apostle, first became formulated into a political creed; and il was equally appropriate that southern mana promnent product, during the civil war, of the creed MT. Calhoun taught should be the orator of the occa- sion. Calhoun devoted his whole energies and ability, and they were colossal, to advocating the iniquitous claim that the states had the right to be the judge of the constitutionality of all, or any, acts of Congress, and, further, had the right to resist the operation of any law it might object 10, within its own borders. Calhoun will be remembered, outside of his own section, only for his brilliant abil- ities and the purity of his public and private life. With the monstrous pslnical dogmas he taught, of which cur civil war was the natural out come, the great world of today has nc sympathy, and still less will his memory be honored in the days that are 10 come.

TIE irrepressible Governor of Ari- zona is possessed of such inordinate vanity that he is always posing before the people in some new attitude that will attract attention. During the legislature he was the great economist, then the moralist and now he is try. ing to steal General Miles thunder on Indian affairs. He reminds us of a rooster that mounts hls favorite dung hill every morning and thinks the sun IS rising to hear him crow.

This Cincha has taken the lead over all others where once used. With single cin. cha too much pressure has to be used to keep the saddle in place. In a wide Cincha the edges arc often loose while the middle ia tight. The use of two seperate Cinchas is also objectionable, one is liable to be draws tipbter than the other. he loose one usun ally acts as an irritant to the animal. slipping in short time through the exercise, and moving forward or backward. By the use of such Cinchas the animal is frequently ruined by kidney Jumps and other diseases.
 The best Ciucha is the Patent Cow Boy Double Cincha. It is joined and fastened to fit the belly of the horse, so that the pres sure will be equal both in length and breadth In addition to this, 1t is easily ;ightered, the Latigo strap from the saddle running lightly over the roller in the ring on the Cincha; This roller in itself does admirable seryi2e.

LETTER FROM IYLEs's rORD.

Messrs. Editors: We have had
gcnial showers all spring. I don't
recollect more favorable spring for
preparing land for the reception OF
seed. Cotton presents a vigorous
color, and stands complete. In early
planted corn, and on bottom corn, the
bud worm has depleted the stand ON
the latter, and cold weather The former.
Planters are we'll up with their crops.
Most of the cotton has been chopped
out.
Wheat promises an average crop,
now Eearly matured Oats ere short
in statue, but we hope the late rains
will SO improve them that nearly All
average crop may be produced. Gar
dens, though late, are looking well.
Upon the whole crop prospects are
quite favorable up to this date. I
think we need not fear high freslaets
or even low ones this summer, as 7 do
not reco!lcct two consecutive annual
frcshets in summer, except the August
frcshets of 1852 and '53. Corn is
looking we'll, and larger area planted
in this section than for many years
past.
Farmers are hopeful as to good
crop the present year, and it is pleas
ant to notice their smile in recount
ing the present prospects generally.
So am encouraged in the fond antic-
ipation that the citizens of our county,
if fair crop is produced, will publish
my "Reminiscences of Fairfield" by
all subscribing to it. We think Of
sending out an agent soon to canvass
our county for subscribers to the
work. Old Fairfield possesses too
much patriotism to let this important
work fail Of publishing, now that it is
nearly completed for the press, pro-
yided we produce a fair crop the
present year. The future prospects
are Frightening for the South, and if
planters are able to build railroads
and cotton mills, surely they can buy
q history for mere pittance to inform
them and their posterity as to who
their ancestors were, whether. gem
erals, governors, statesmen, farmers,
mechanics, lawyers, doctors or preach:
ers Of the Gospel. If they were even
honest and useful citizens, it would
afford them pleasure to have their
memories transmitted to later ages.
They would also wish to know Incl
dents Of history relative to the early
settlement, etc., ETC., of their county.
We will await the issue and see.
w. L.
p. S.-We were blessed with rains
Yesterday, and farmers busily engaged
this morning setting out potato slips,
Of which there seems to be a plentiful
crop and of vigorous growth. I am
pleased to notice that farmers are ap-
preciating tho potato crop Of late
years. We!
